Do you think he cares?

^ You chew your gum funny.

...

Vince Carter should be droppable.

I can't handle his nonsense.

 

[misterp0315]

Should I drop McDyess for Barbosa? Dyess is losing production with Wallace back and I think dude is just tired.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Somebody in my league picked up Barbosa. I'm thinking he knows something. I'd do it without looking at the numbers

.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Whoo hoo!! I'm tied in my weekly matchup!! I was down 2-7 on Wednesday

and now I'm tied with a few more games today and tomorrow's games left. Ijust needed that chance!!

I'm "Yup... Still Trash."

And I was pissed at Troy Murphy coming back after I dropped him. The team I'm facing picked up Murphy and now is using him against me.

 

[bangdak]

matchups are over on saturdays right?
which one is your team paul?

 

[paul is on tilt]

"Yup... Still Trash" is my team.

Matchups are over Sunday night.

 

[misterp0315]

I feel like such an idiot. I'm on the phone...about to pick up Barbosa for Antonio...accidently pushed Antawn.

I hope I get him back.

 

[bangdak]

i dont know man, everything looks pretty even. ft/boards look like they're going to you, and fg/dimes belong to him. he has a nice lead over you in 3pmttoo. and with more games to come, you're most likely going to be down in TOs. better catch up in steals and blocks paul

 

[paul is on tilt]

Word, I'm trying to pick up 3pt shooters because I still have Joe Johnson, Rashard Lewis, and Hedo Turkoglu to play tonight. Maybe they can close in on the3pt category for me. As for blocks, I just picked up Haywood and Noah for today. Dropped both for Anthony Morrow (another 3pt shooter) and Ryan Gomes (another3pt shooter). Also, what I'm trying to do is to win points since it's a toss up. 3pters count for points, so that's the direction I'm going.

In terms of steals, there is nobody to pick up who excels at steals. I'll look at who to pick up for blocks, though Chris Andersen doesn't come offwaivers until Monday

. He would have been the IDEAL pickup for me

.

Another thing is in my question earlier about who to pick up for 3pters, I'm leaning towards Nocioni because he had 5 blocks this past week and is versus afavorable matchup against my Golden State Warriors

.

Ahh, I don't know what do to. I guess I have to wait until later tonight when the stats are all set for tomorrow's games. StatTracker FTW! Keeps meupdated throughout the day!

Well he should! He's gonna cost me. I hope he feels bad for this.

Jokes

So here's my matchup with one more day to go...

I might as well give up on trying to win 3's

. I need to pick up people who will help me with steals and blocks but there aren't too many peopleto choose from. I still need to think about trying to get enough points to keep a lead in that category

.

Here's my team with the ones scheduled to play tomorrow.

Hopefully Randolph, Lopez, and LeBron can get me enough blocks to win

. I still need someone to help with the steals. Gah, this sucks. I set a limit to howmany transactions a team can make week. I have 2 transactions left. I don't want to drop people who will get snatched up IF I make it to the next round,but then again, I need to worry about making it to the next round. Let's say I do need to drop 2 players to help me with blocks and/or steals, who should Idrop? Derrick Rose and Hedo Turkoglu? Anyone care to help?

Also, I need to think about who to pick up for blocks. I organized them from most blocks totaled in the past month. Who should I pick up from this list? Takeinto consideration their playing time and their opponent.

How's that triple double working for you?

 

[paul is on tilt]

I ended up not making a last minute move. I know I'm going to lose now. Dude has a full roster playing against me tomorrow. I got 3 empty spots that couldhave been filled with an active player but dang, I just couldn't pull the trigger. I didn't know who to pick up but most importantly, I didn't knowwho to drop. I was leaning toward either Derrick Rose or Hedo Turkoglu but damn, I couldn't pull the trigger.

 

[japanair21]

Yo! Didn't even know we were playing eachother Paul.. Sneaky dude.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Don't trip, you're most likely going to win this week. I've been so consumed with my money league that I completely forgot to fix my lineup one dayfor my other 3 leagues. Let's just say, I let you off the hook.

Got it.

Better luck next time!

 

[paul is on tilt]

It's not that, I don't do Fantasy Baseball/Football, I'd just waste my picks on Barry Bonds and Bernie Williams.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Yup, you definitely would have been embarrassed.

 

[Los Angeles]

i dont get it.

all my players were ballin, and my matchup had joe johnson and vince carter playing last night

and im still down 9-2

 

[paul is on tilt]

Please, please, please... let me win at least 5 of these 7 categories: FG%, FT%, points, rebounds, steals, blocks, turnovers.
